An Indian restaurant that is a favourite of Sir Paul McCartney, Amir Khan, Richard Gere, Demi Moore and the Kuwait Royal Family, among others, has opened in Dubai.
The first venue to open under the Khyber name outside of its native Mumbai, the restaurant is situated on the 15th floor of the recently opened DUKES Dubai hotel and apartments.
Khyber has a 180-degree view that takes in Burj Al Arab and the Dubai Marina skyline.
The venue, which has capacity for up to 162 guests, including 40 diners on the terrace, also features a live cooking station and numerous private dining options.
Khyber owner Sudheer Bahl said, “Khyber is an iconic name, anybody who talks about Mumbai, knows about our restaurant and DUKES Dubai is the only venue that can recreate its splendour; the hotel is palatial, regal and looks magnificent.”
The Indian fine dining favourite will specialise in authentic north Indian frontier food.
Bahl added, “We have been searching for the perfect partner for the last ten years. Entering the UAE for the first time is an important step for us in terms of international growth.”
Abdulla Bin Sulayem, CEO, Seven Tides International, who own DUKES Dubai, said, “We have worked closely with the Bahl family to ensure the new Khyber restaurant captures the true essence of the concept.”
DUKES Dubai is located on the trunk of Palm Jumeirah.
